The swirl is all in the throw-back, definitely part of the action. I didn't even do it smoothly here and it still halved my time.
"but wrong sizee bottle" -- see our full video for why 4oz is just as valid (RAW and popular interpretation) as 1oz: ua-cam.com/video/GNx0YXvQK6w/v-deo.htmlsi=Rq2CRjQ7KZYqTjQc&t=175
Add a straw, like a tea bomb.
Potions are also four ounces. Maybe try less liquid
Perhaps trying out different shapes of bottles with the same amount of fluid. Something with a Erlenmeyer flair or perhaps a nice Boston Round
What if you made the potions into hard candy and just swallow them whole
@@dustinthewind357 then I'd expect it to work slower, making the analogy with real world medicine
This is what sets apart adventurers from commoners
adventurers need throat game
@@FlameQwert with high enough preformance, drinking potions becomes a bonus action
@@dizzy6756 I love the implications that are given from commenting this under a comment talking about “throat game”
I used to be a commoner like you, then I took a potion to the throat.
Alcoholism!!! 🎉
"EVERYONE KNOWS YOU EAT THE WHOLE THING THAT'S WHY YOU DON'T HAVE EMPTY BOTTLES IN YOUR INVENTORY!"
At first this made me think of edible glass. But now, that led me to think of jellofied potions.
OUTRAGEOUS
@vanillalice4676 that would be hilarious kinda like how a lot of supplements nowadays are in gummy form.
I don’t remember any other part of that skit, but man is that line memorable
That's why they heal so little, all the magic is wasted fixing your digestive tract.
The flasks in dnd have rifling.
Thats... actually kind of an interesting idea. Circular "screw" grooves in the neck to naturally start the vortex for easy quick consumption on demand.
@Axel-zc6xj either that or every bottle comes with a prestigitation built-in to add a gentle gust of wind at the back of the bottle. What minor illusion would be common? Would every bottle have a loud advertisement for the general store at the bottom of every bottle? Do most people not finish the dregs of the bottle so that they can avoid the advertisement? Is the campaign high magic or low magic? How does ya like that hot air?
@Axel-zc6xj also, a small hole runs from the middle inside of the neck to the inside of the bottle to prevent surface tension from creating a barrier to flow.
@@gabef9538 Ah yes, the lesser known shotgun flask, with two corks
@CharlieApples the double corked flasks is only for either a concoction that tastes aweful and requires a chaser, or if the potion duration is dependent on a chemical reaction and the active ingredient would otherwise have a shelf life of minutes.
"What do I do with the empty vile?"
"Eat it like a normal person"
Vldl reference man of culture
The reason you roll for how effective the potion is how much of the potion you are able to drink.
Facts
Lol
Itd be an interesting mechanic to let people save what they can't drink in 1 roll, but only give the +2 bonus once, potions in d&d feel pretty underwhelming for the expense that would at least let you get the full 6 out of it eventually
Idk if it's supposed to be like that, but that's the canon explanation for me and my friends while we are in combat
@@jestfullgremblim8002iirc that IS WotC's official explanation, and also the reason why if you drink a potion outside of combat you always get the maximum effect.
„As a reaction, I swirl my health potion“
😂
Probably the only thing you'll ever get to is your reaction for anyways 😂
That's just an interaction, though...
GURPS logic
As a GM, I would rule that it would require proficiency in order to chug as a bonus action. Which can make for a great homebrew talent dealing with alchemy
That took 3 Seconds. Holy Moly, it is a Bonus Action.
What video are you watching? The time is on the screen...
In germany we do that with beer and say "entzünde den Tornado"

@@bluefox2844 haha no we have now just expanded our ability to poision ones self
I like the idea of adventurers passing around the "potion chug technique" at taverns, practicing with beer
Two scrawny mages arguing about how to drink potions in a tavern, taking turns trying to beat each other’s time
Then a 7 foot beast of a man walks in, eats a bottle whole, then leaves without a word
@@Menamphetamine reverse it so two beasts of men are squabbling over the perfect chomp technique for potions, and a scrawny mage comes in, does a perfect swirl chug then eats the bottle and leaves without a word
@@dyingofdioxide works just as well
It's a popular drinking game. He who doesn't knock back the practice booze withing six seconds a) pays for the next round and b) doesn't get the potion of minor healing to get unwasted again
@@Arcanefungus One Two Three Four Chug the potion fast for more!
*Groggy Ice has entered the room*
“Had some coming out my nose”
That just means you’re getting the healing through your system :D

Really clears up the sinuses
Good for sinus allergies
If it burns that means its working
Bro’s never chugged a beer competitively
Beer should be savored, not chugged 🍻
@@grizzlybear6377 depends on the the "beer."
@thingmaker3 yeah, definitely not savoring no Bud Light
@@thingmaker3 You can treat a beer the same way you treat a lover. Slow, enjoying every sip. Or fast and to the point like a dirty shit found on top of a urinal. It's up to you 😉🍺
I think the problem is the shape of the flask. It's very thin at the end, so the question is more "how fast can the liquid get out of the end" than "how fast can you drink"
Best adventuring skill: chugging
“You are drinking the potion wrong” is a very artificer sentence
Yeah you got to eat the bottle
@@bored4271 Very barbarian sentence
😂😂
"Not to be taken orally"
I had my artificer develop an injector knife.
The DM was absolutely NOT expecting me to backstab a friendly NPC to negotiate with a bad guy, and was even less expecting me to have loaded the knife with a greater healing potion
I've always had it that potions are usually in viles and it's like taking a shot.
Same, it would also make more sense to have much smaller vials for the sake of carrying capacity.
That does it. Next time I have a shot of espresso I’m putting it in a vial
Or it's like a grenade you throw at the ground and it vaporizes around you and into you
@smileyp4535 Well that's just BG3 rules
Yeah, same about the vials instead of bottles idea for me. Considering that, at least in Pathfinder rules, in order to create a healing potion, you had to be able to cast healing spells. So I always thought that is was just like you have to have a masterwork weapon to be able to hold a magical enchantment, an alchemist has to create a concoction that would hold a healing spell. It's not a medicine, it's a vehicle for magical storage. Thus, you don't need a big ass potion. Just a small vial is enough to carry the spell.
Potion of Healing comes in a vial with a max capacity of 4 ounces. "Most potions consist of one ounce of liquid." from the DMG - Chapter 7: Treasure - Magic Items - Magic Item Categories - Potions. I assume that a healing potion fits under the "Most" category. That bottle looks like more than one ounce.
It would be like drinking from a shot glass. I think most people could do that in less than 6 seconds fairly consistently.
Thanks, came looking for this.
Didn't see this before commenting. 😊
When I wash dishes at work, the other employees are always impressed with how quickly I get my bottles washed. The vortex really does like make rinsing a bottle out like 2 seconds
no wrong. you're supposed to EAT the bottle with the health potion inside. like a shabby glass gusher of health
“The potion heals you for 10 HP, but the broken glass in your stomach damages you for 10 HP. You are also inflicted with bleeding.”
Right? I don't understand how more people don't know you just eat the vile, glass and all.
Pathfinder actually had something like that for underwater campaigns, the idea was these wax covered sponges in which the potion was absorbed. Pop it into your mouth and chew through the wax to get to the potion
Wrong. Youre supposed to shatter the potion on the floor and get crushed onto it.
Terraria character moment
"Rowan, Just eat the vial like A NORMAL person!"
🤣
Viva La dirt league is too funny
Okay Ben! Eating the potion like a normal person. Avoiding the shards of glass
HAH😆YES VLDL is an amazing channel. Love this reference.
I've not seen that one. I thought I had seen all of their vids.
Put a straw in like you're shotgunning a beer from a bottle
what if the bottles come with the straw pre-installed :O
bite through the bottom of the glass then open it
Man’s never been to a single party in his entire life
I’ve always pictured healing potions in test tube shaped vials, rather than bulbous bottles. It makes them easier to down quickly.
True. I definitely saw more comments saying he used the wrong shape containers than I saw people saying to swirl it (I saw nobody saying to swirl it lol)
I've always defined potions as around 2 ounces (about a "shot") and contained in straight sided vials. Makes them much easier to down during combat.
Yeah I imagine that the shape of the bottle has a lot to do with it because I can easily down like half a 28 oz reusable water bottle in like 6 seconds, but maybe I’m just odd idk
same! i always figured it was those thin test tubes and you could just slot em in easily on a tool belt or some shit
@@kennpeters1973yeah I think its much more realistic to have five test tubes/lidded shot glasses hanging from their belt than five massive bottles, especially when they are constantly being thrown about and punched in battle, those would break so easily.
Competitive beer drinking tricks come in handy when fighting a dragon.
I mean liquid courage is technically a potion
@syncretik5762 That's what I've been calling vodka.
I just take a shot of Courage
@@hay2bay hennything is possible for a cowardly dog
Well. This is going in my setting's lore. New adventurers practicing the technique in taverns or guild halls. Veterans showing off either their finesse at doing it, or their custom glassware. Crafters working on better bottles, quickdraw belts and pouches, or even concentrated versions of the potions. Love it
9 seconds if faster than 10 second of swirling and 5 seconds of drinking.
the potion is constantly swirling inside thanks to magic, duh
Swirl it while you're taking it out.
I mean it only takes like 1 second to swirl a bottle though
That's a huge potion lol. I always imagined them as those thin tall beakers.
Its one of those "mega potions" i forgot the actual name
They're only 1oz according to the actual DM's Guide. Which makes them smaller than a 5 Hour Energy. This, in this video, is not a healing potion. This is like a half dozen healing potions
@@chrismanuel9768 Really? Holy balls, that's good to know. But why does it take 6 seconds to knock that back?
@Drekromancer I'd have to imagine that something thar instantly cures your wounds would taste like hell lmao. Choking it down.
Like a stamina potion from Diablo 2?
Page 139 of the the DMG: "Most potions contain one ounce of liquid."
Had to google what 1 oz looks like cause I live in not America. Apparently its about half a shot glass. Yup that should take less than 6 seconds.
Guy is intentionally making DND clickbait. Shrug. Just go with the meme answer of eating the bottle.
TIL there's an actual volume specified
The fact that you knew that is bewildering to me.
Everyone has something, I'm happy you found yours.
"Most" is not "all", and when you take rarity into account, most could just be common potions. Personally, unless it specifies a volume, I make the rarer potions larger because you need the extra medium to contain the more powerful magic. That just makes more sense to me.
Didn't think slightly-disheveled Lewis Spears would teach me to drink a potion today, but I am impressed.
I'd like to think my adventurer does the "crush" method, where you take a water bottle and shotgun it all at once but with a glass vial full of healing potion
Baldurs gate taught me you dont drink it. You break it into your ally's face.
Or place it next to a character and then activate the giant metal press that downs them but breaks the potion to immediately revive them
@@panbaguette4400what is this Sierra adventure puzzle nonsense 😆
@@KM-hv1jg I know right. Half of my grymforge battle was me dropping health potions and the shooting the button for the metal press with an arrow.
Now I'm imaging my half-orc shot gunning health potions in less than 6 seconds on the battle field like a savage frat boy.
What you really need is to have 2 openings on your world’s vials for let air in faster from the second opening
This is a common beer drinking technique in Germany

Ah I see you’re a man of culture as well
@@no-4 It’s actually quite easy as the wounds created by the glass are immediately healed afterwards. Though, just make sure not to swallow any glass, cause I would rather use lay on hands on the Barbarian who is currently wrestling an owl-bear at the moment.
@@gratefulgamer7907yeah if you swallow then you'd have to drink another potion on the exit of the first one which is a waste obviously

@@anonymousapproximation8549nah next day u def get an intelligence debuff. I take dot damage i try to use my brain then.
As a wizard who has been on many adventures with many parties, I can confirm that common practice to swirl the potion while drinking it, unless it's a heath potion. When its life or death, we simply eat the bottles with the potions. The health potion will heal up any brand new wound with out scaring if done correctly so the glass simply doesn't matter as long as you chew the glass good enough, it's even better if you use glass made by elven glass has a habit of turning to dust when hit or crushed even slightly.
Use a straw for airflow like those dudes who chug alcohol bottles lol
Man potion chugging would 1000% be a sport in an actual fantasy world
4-4-40, but with health potions. First one to keep them all four down for all 7 rounds takes the pool. (Oh, to be young again.)
*Chugs potion of potion chugging*
Potions bases are nearly always a spirit or alcohol. What you're describing is alcoholism and it's already real
"You cannot chug *MY* strongest potions, traveler!"
Naw dude some guy just enchants bottles all day making the potions shoot into your mouth and down your throat.
"just eat the vial"
vivaladirtleague
Edit: Duck autocorrect
*vial
Like a normal person
Just turn autocorrect off.
Came to say this
Vial is a real word. I don't think autocorrect would have changed it.
This knowledge is older than time itself.
Have you not noticed that soda bottles have grooves in the neck? Theyre designed to deliberately swirl the liquid as it pours out of the bottle, creating a vortex to break surface tension and speed up the flow.
Its the same principle as gun barrel rifling - Spinning the fluid/projectile as it moves
That “for once” was personal 😂
Dude could really handle the potion maker’s strongest potions and it shows
Right, he is clearly not of the strongest of beings he is clearly of the weakest.
what is in it? just red food coloring?
Where's that reference from? I know ive seen it but cant recall what it is
@@lllooolll327 The name of the vid is Potion Seller
turned out drinking a potion is also a skill (taking notes for my own campaign and npc interactions)
You are now a full-fledged adventurer my brother.
I canonize my character breaking the potion on his forehead to heal himself.
The character in Dead Cells actually has a "Face Flask" power -- "Crush a flask on your forehead, dealing low damage to yourself."
considering the healing aoe by smashing it near a group of characters...this is a strong contender lol
Nah man, that's not D&D. One might even say it's Blasphemous...
But the Dead Cells "face flask" is actually a reference to Blasphemous. There's actually an outfit rewarded for using the face flask that's made to look like the Penitent One, the game's protagonist.
Easily one of the best metroidvanias of all time.
When the barbarian can no longer rely on the cleric
In runescape you can do a mini quest that allows you to smash flasks on your head after theyre empty to get rid of them from your inventory
I never thought about how exposed the throat is when chugging a potion...
That's why you GOTTA do it in 6 seconds or less. Oh my god, monster readies attack action, trigger is player chugs potion
i might have to torture my players and do something about this next session
Oh my god haha please do update us if so! @@fae4688

I've called it tornado as well, but I live in a section of the US called Tornado Alley....also the move has been used icing people for awhile
In America it’s called newly divorced

Swirl, Swirl(ee), tornado, twister, Vortex, or a spin are all acceptable when it comes to drinking terms.

"For the average person"
*[meanwhile the dwarf who holds the world record in drinking a gallon]*
5'8" is average height, not below 5 feet
I've taught this to baristas and servers in training. It's such a simple and useful way to get a liquid out of a bottle quickly.
If the bottle had a built in straw going straight up and down attached to the inside it'd help too. Air would be able to flow through the straw while the potion would be able to flow freely from the opening.
“You have six seconds to live”
“Ok, lemme swirl this bottle mid-combat for seven*
as he said in the pinned comment, it's all about the head movement when you start to down it. You really don't have to do the wrist swirls. It's very common when people are trying to drink lots of alcohol very fast.
@@jaxryz_380 True, but I would question how fast that potion can go from it's position in a tool belt, to chin height while still being secure enough to not fall or break during acrobatics/combat.
you do the swirl as you run to a safe place that will let you sit there for 6 seconds.
If health potions were real they wouldnt work mid combat. Try drinking a potion after youve been stabbed while youre trying to defend yourself against an aggressor in full plate with a longsword relentlessly attacks you.
The second you pull out that potion he'll see what youre trying to do and will come at you even harder. Youll be down and out before you drink a drop of thar potion
This also depends heavily on the type of potion bottle you use. you could drink one with a wider passage much faster, not to mention a vial
Perhaps the mark of a good alchemist is how small they can make their potions. A small vial that can be finished in one swig is far more useful and easy to carry than a massive jug.
@@jooot_6850I see what you’re getting at but wouldn’t it make more sense to carrry the best potion in a giant hug and transfer to vials as needed
@jooot_6850 it would cost more gold coins from a adventurers perspective because concentrating sometimes takes a lot of resources
@@lilkidsuaveconcentrated potions means you can't sell as many for the same amount of ingredients, so yeah, value would go up
Not really, if the more concentrated potion is proportionally smaller then the amount of ingredients used is the same (outside of the actual process of concentrating, though that would probably be cheaper than the initial potion cost). Definitely more expensive, but probably only 1.5x raw resource cost. Of course, the value for the skill required to concentrate the potion would also drive up the price, but it would be pretty viable for a PC making their own potions!@@annoyinglyfast5972
In Germany we call this "Tornado" lol, we even have Ron Bielecki who vent viral making this his signature move lol
There are no written rules governing how much volume a potion needs to have. However, in D&D 3.5, the PHB states that a 'vial, ink, or potion' weighs 1/10th of a pound, which makes it 1.6 ounces.
So, you're not pounding one potion, you're pounding five.
Potions are described in 3rd and 5th edition as 1 oz of liquid in a vial or flask. This is less than a single shot of alcohol. OD&D and Ad&D 2e do not give a specific volume but also use the flask or vial description for the container.
In 5e PHP it says healing potions are in vials, and it says vials are 4 oz.
But does it say the vial is filled by the potion? We don't often fill containers to the brim. That is especially true when corks are involved. You can have a vial with a potential volume of 4 oz that only holds 1 oz of fluid. In fact having air in the vial would make it easier to drink quickly so it would make sense for the vial to be only partially filled.
@@TheBearOfSpadesIk this is gonna sound crazy, but you can put liquid in a container without filling it.
@@Strange_BardEmpty air (headspace) in a container is the #1 determinant of spoilage under identical environmental conditions.
Fill your wine bottle to the brim and it lasts longer, leave it a quarter empty and it turns to vinegar MUCH MUCH faster.
in ff16 potions are crushed in the main character’s hand and then he gets back to fighting, i like the idea of using brittle bottles that are safe enough to crush in a hand but also to carry around
Damn, now I can’t get the mental image of my incredibly reserved cleric chugging a potion during a hectic fight lmaooo
if you count the time you spend on spinning, it's about 8-9 seconds
It's also possible that they just have smaller bottles, but they would probably still have to swirl it considering that they're doing other things in those 6 seconds like running, casting a bonus action spell, or if you run potions as a bonus action then they'd have to do it even faster to make room for they're full action, which could be anything from a fireball to 3 sword strikes
Something that a lot of people don't seem to realize is that almost every consumable item that only holds one dose is a flask, and in DND, the size of a flask is 50 milliliters.
30ml actually
@@sailor5853 So - a shot?
@@JustinMcJustinJeez no wonder why it can be drank so fast then.
Yea, did he pick an arbitrary volume at random? This is covered in the rules.
50ml is the palm of your hand, depending on shape, shouldnt take more than 2 secs to drink unless its narrow mouth.
Beer drinkers saved the day.
He's the throat goat.
i wanna just pull the cork out of that and hear the satisfying "polunk" 😭🙏
i imagine potions are more like shots. plus then the potion bottles are teeny tiny and cute :3
Ya like a little vile on a sling strap where shot gun shells would go
potions are very very small! around 30ml (or 1 ounce) of liquid!
"Your character will take 16 points of poison damage."
"He'll down a shot of health potion, and then another shot of poison reduction."
*Sigh* "Okay, roll a Wisdom saving throw."
There's also the fact that, since it’s magical, it can inherently have this "fast pour" effect.
Could be really uncomfortable if you have liquid that wants to be drunk. It almost literally jumps down your throat.
also its only one ounce, its a shot not a massive drink lol
@@bobhope3097it's 4 ounces

for some reason listening through my headphones, that last second when you're really gulping down the potion sounded like it was coming from across the room (IRL) in my ears. so i looked around and was terrified my cat was throwing up lol
"A typical potion or oil consists of 1 ounce of liquid held in a ceramic or glass vial fitted with a tight stopper. The stoppered container is usually no more than 1 inch wide and 2 inches high."
That's straight from SRD. That isn't the right size nor the right shape
THANK you
This is why I always imagined them less as big globe bottles, and more like tiny shot vials. Pop, gulp, done.
Dmg says potions are usually half a shotglass
I always thought of them basically being in a test tube. Smaller profile, less likely to be broken.
I remember when people at school were chugging their water bottles as a flex of their skills, i could never do
I would just think a smaller potion, that's a sizable flask, I would envision a small vial, quick swig and it's down. Makes more sense then adventures having to swirl their potion mid combat.
PHB describes a health potion as a FOUR OUNCE VIAL. What you have is a flask. A vial won't have a bottleneck.
The PHB describes potions of healing as being a vial of liquid (this is vague and could be vials of any size imaginable) and later describes a vial (the empty kind listed in the adventuring gear) as having a maximum capacity of 4 oz. The PHB never specifies that the empty vials are the same kind used for potions of healing. In contrast, the DMG does specify a specific volume for potions and magical oils, which is 1 oz.
O.O So _that's why_ that call it a "bottleneck."
@@trajectoryunown yes a bottleneck is something that limits the propagation of one thing into another place or time
@@HelloThere..... I've only ever heard of it in relation to the performance of electronic hardware. 'twould appear that, like computer "bugs", this also has a real world origin. I was just astonished that I didn't connect the dots until now.
@@trajectoryunownman those are my favorite moments, most things are like that, I actually felt my brain rearranging itself when I put together that analog signals are actually analogs for the information they are conveying and how obvious it was in hindsight.
Those real world party drinkers passing off hard earned knowledge.
A web toon called surviving the game as a barbarian actually uses a explanation that I personally like and use: the potion itself isn't too hard to chug but the healing process itself hurts like he'll which is why it takes a full turn
awesome video! you had a lot of variety (which was pleasantly surprising; i don't see a lot of that in most video essays) and it was all paced out very well. i also really dig your choice in background music :D
“My lord, the royal mixologist has just concocted a new elixir and he has named it code red Mountain Dew”
"What is its effect?"
"It makes *everything else* taste better"
That's why you just eat the bottle.
I also assume that potion bottles don't have such a narrow opening for chugging purposes.
Either 6 seconds is too short or potions vials are too large. I imagine for potions to take 6 seconds or less to chug they should be smaller than a test tubes or no bigger than one of those mini bottle alcohol shots.
in final fantasy 16 you can crush a tiny potion bottle in your hand it takes like half a second for the character. perhaps we can just write in combat bottles that can be crushed in the hands pretty easily but also strong enough to just not have it shatter while on your belt, maybe potions can be pellet sized or something
Just eat the bottle Rowan!
@@nolansaylor7710 "A HORSE. POCKET."

Just imagine being on 1hp and being like "hang on I just gotta swirl my potion"
I read a book that had potions in little sacks. Prevented breaking bottles and you could just squeeze it for quick drinking.

Beer bro must be gangster at D&D
It's also notable that a lot of games show pictures of these big potion bottles-- health, mana, energy etc potions are the size of a shot glass! It's way faster to down a highly potent one or two ounces of liquid than it is to drink five ounces of watered down (but visually aesthetic) kool-aid
I love the image of my dragonborn eldrich knight swirling a potion and throwing it down like a frat boy with a corona 😂
Imagine you’re fighting some Goblin King, and he sees you just swirling this bottle, like it’s an exquisite health potion wine 😂
You called ?
^^^First of all, perfect.
Secondly:
Or better yet the whole party chugging pots like frat boys while chanting chug chug chug.
You can also blow into the bottle slightly faster if you get it right. Source beer in about 6 seconds
Theres also a trick to sorta manually opening your throat so the liquid just falls down into your stomach. It can be done in a second or two so you can use your movement and bonus actions
this guy knows
What trick?
Youre still fighting the bubbles and gravity. With a plastic bottle you can force it down your opened throat. The bottle is the "problem" here.
@somecallmetim4490 I mean cool, but you can literally see him struggling to swallow fast enough to keep it under six seconds. If you just open your throat, you can drink it as fast as the bottle can drain. Or use a bottle with a vent so you don't have the vacuum issue. Or more of a mason jar design instead of a tight neck bottle.
There are so many ways to get liquid out of a container almost instantly that swallowing the liquid is the real bottleneck.
@eslin2845 it's more of an issue of practice. You can will yourself to just open your throat, and all liquids slide right down instead of swallowing normally. It's pretty uncomfortable without loads of practice, your body doesn't particularly want to do it instinctually.
Pov: the alchemist, watching his party member drink a whole jar of disinfectant in 6 seconds
“Now presenting DRUNKIE’S VORTEX”
this is part of why i usually describe potions to players as being in a small vial instead of a larger bottle or flask. for some higher-benefit potions though i tend to leave them as a bottled fluid that takes a full turn to drink (though a 5-foot step and reaction are still allowed).
"i don't feel well after drinking that potion"
"must have drunk it wrongly"
I would love a dnd rule that says after each potion chug you just lob the bottle as a part of the chug
Because what kinda good chug doesnt end with smashed glass
Any that happen in a pub you want to be able to go back to.
